I have to admit I love candles and what they do for ambience. I could not imagine not having candles in my home and feel so lucky that I get to work with the hospitality industry. I know with Christmas planning around the corner and all the hectic rush to make sure our customers are happy. I thought I would post a few of the seasonal candles that we will be stocking up on for our customers over the coming Christmas period. To remind you to order early @ www.coventgardencandles.co.uk

These lovely red lowboys will add a warm light to any table and these tea lights who can resist their scent of Vanilla and Cherry

I am also wondering what will be the Christmas colours this year,

Whilst sitting on the tube this morning between one unwashed male and one male stinking of stale booze, a horrid experience and I could have cheerfully deodorised them both. I was desperate to get to the office where we trial aromatic candles all the time. A particular favourite of mine is the Baked Cookies by Bolsius, this is a truly gorgeous range. For use in your problem areas. Whether its the loos or the smoking area at the back these are great to get rid of those nuisance odours. We have the full range available at Covent Garden Candles

What about these yummy smells who knew and they really do smell as per label amazing.They come in a range of sizes and aromas for full range and our wonderful wholesale prices go to Covent Garden Candles.

Well what a change to the weather only a week ago I wondered if it would ever stop raining. In the space of 4 days apparently UK tourism has gone up and people are doing staycation. We Brits are really driven by the weather and like nothing more on a summer evening than to sit out and enjoy our late light evenings. The mosquitos and other pests that drive us mad can be a problem, so below are our outdoor citronella and lighting products to keep your customers happy in your beer gardens and dining terraces. Make the most of summer.

This short blog is aimed at event organisers. Some of the most beautiful candle displays I have seen are done by event organisers for wedding and celebrations. I often wonder how they manage to get the space right and if they get the opportunity to really play with design or its a tried and trusted scenario.
The photos above and below illustrate what I mean they are breath-taking examples of what you can achieve with candles and so for this week I say hats off to all the event organisers.
if you tweet me your pictures of beautiful events decorated with candles I will retweet.

A quality candle has a number of things that must be right
The right wick for the size and type of candle or the burn will be uneven and smokey and will waste wax
In Covent Garden Candles our stock is sourced from reputable European manufactures, using high quality raw materials which means peace of mind for our customers who can rely on quality long burning and clean candles at discounted wholesale prices.
Tips:
Make sure your candles have the right length wick with a bend in it (the wick should bend to give an even burn)
Make sure the flame is even and never touches the glass or the glass will crack
Use the recommended containers available from Covent Garden Candles
In conclusion cheap candles and nightlights are a false economy and good quality candles are far more cost effective in the long run, which means you can love your customers and your costs

How amazing that through the centuries candles have endured, we turn off the power and light candles at dinner time. We have them in the bathroom to help us relax.
I guess the bottom line is that we will always use candles, I love when hotels and restaurants provide candles and soft lighting.
I wonder what our emotional connection is to candles, I think its the beautiful glow, a soft comforting light.

Source Wikipedia:
After the collapse of the Roman empire, trading disruptions made olive oil, the most common fuel for oil lamps, unavailable throughout much of Europe. As a consequence, candles became more widely used. By contrast, in North Africa and the Middle East, candle-making remained relatively unknown due to the availability of olive oil.
Candles were commonplace throughout Europe in the Middle Ages. Candle makers (known as chandlers) made candles from fats saved from the kitchen or sold their own candles from within their shops. The trade of the chandler is also recorded by the more picturesque name of “smeremongere”, since they oversaw the manufacture of sauces, vinegar, soap and cheese. The popularity of candles is shown by their use in Candlemas and in Saint Lucy festivities

Be it a romantic dinner, relaxing Spa, birthday celebration or major party, we expect and love candles and haven’t they come a long way since the days of spitting and smoking. Now you can order beautifully shaped, aroma filled, floating, electric or sparkling candles to suit the needs of every venue. Love your customers. We have wholesale candles for every occasion http://coventgardencandles.co.uk/ 02077360740
